Mr Sunak said there needed to be 'a strong voice to get to the bottom of what happened' after the former nurse was found guilty of murdering seven babies and attempting to kill six others while working at a NHS hospital. A statutory inquiry would compel witnesses to give evidence.
The government ordered an inquiry last week afterand will never leave prison.
Ministers had previously said that"after careful consideration", a non-statutory inquiry into the circumstances at the Countess of Chester Hospital"was found to be the most appropriate option". "This was one of the most despicable, horrific crimes in our history, and it's really important that we get answers, particularly for the families of the victims," Mr Sunak said.
